Calculus I - Common Graphs

Section 1.10 : Common Graphs

1. Without using a graphing calculator sketch the graph of $\displaystyle y = \frac{4}{3}x - 2$.

Show Solution

This is just a line with slope $\frac{4}{3}$ and $y$-intercept $\left( {0, - 2} \right)$ so here is the graph.

$The graph of the line $y = \frac{4}{3}x - 2$ for $-2 \le x \le 4$. The line rises from left to right, crossing the $y$-axis at (0,-2) and the $x$-axis at (1.5,0).$
